Jamieson & Smith 5ply Shetland

New in at Kathy’s – 5ply Shetland from Jamieson & Smith!

This is an exciting new release from J&S, a hard-wearing worsted-spun yarn perfect for knitting ganseys. We particularly love the colour palette they’ve created – some of the shades are dyed on both a white base and on a grey base, which creates a lovely co-ordinating tonal effect.

Special Mail Order Service

SPECIAL MAIL ORDER SERVICE ON A LIMITED BASIS 5-9th may 2020

I would like to give my customers the opportunity to re-stock during the lockdown phase in a way where I can preserve the personal contact and service ethos of the shop.

This service will last for five days and, depending on how popular it is, and how Government advice develops, I will then consider whether to extend the service, and if so, on what basis.

There may be small delays and glitches, as only myself or Lucy Hague can be in the shop at one time, and we will post every few days.

I will endeavour to provide the best possible service I can at these difficult times.
